According to U.S. Marshals Service reports, Keate allegedly broke a 5-year-old girl’s rib on August 13 by squeezing her rib cage, causing severe pain. The child was treated at UK Children’s Hospital, where doctors confirmed the injury. Keate had been at large for nearly three months before traveling to London and being arrested at an apartment on Logan Court in Bere. The incident occurred after the alleged assault, which led to the child’s hospitalization.
